Red5 Integration for Eclipse

Download & Build the plugin

1. Download the latest JEE eclipse (I use LUNA).
2. Download the repository files as zip / clone the project to your machine.
3. Import the project to your eclipse(you need to unzip the file first, if its zip file) : Import -> Existing projects to workspace -> Select root directory -> {browse locate the downloaded repository folder}
4. Clean project and make sure you dont have any errors showing. Warnings are ok.

Installing the plugin to your Eclipse IDE

• Select Plugin Development -> Deployable-plugins and fragments

• Select "Install into host. Repository:"

• Restart eclipse once installation is complete

Verifying installation

Once eclipse restarts verify that the plugin was successfully installed by going to:

1. File -> New -> Project -> Web -> Dynamic web project
2. Click "New Runtime" besides "Target Runtime"
3. Look for Infrared5 -> Red5 server runtime
4. If you you see it there then installation was successful
